We all love you Tedy, but please try and stay in shape once you're officially retired because if someone should go down, I think we'd all rather call you or Junior over playing someone like Paris Lennon...

I will echo the sadness but after seeing him in the last couple games I was also embaressed and sed wtaching him not keeping up. I know Teddy is too proud to keep on and hurt the team. Teddy we will miss you and hope to see you maybe in the coaching side for us!!!!!

No more Teddy or Vrabel or Rodney or Willie or Troy ... just a bunch of cocky young kids ... wish I could hit the rewind button back to '96. Gonna take a while for these new guys to earn our respect. Still got Brady and Faulk. Never liked Seymour, he's always made it clear he's here for the money.

Considering how many injuries the Pats suffer each year, don't be surprised if we see him again. Unless he comes out and announces a firm retirement like Harrison, I expect to see him before the season ends. We are one of the most injury prone teams in the NFL.

Today a true Patriot retires. A man who defined what a Patriot is. We will miss you Tedy thank you for the championships. Thank you for representing the Patriots. Tedy Bruschi will always be a man among men.

Maybe we'll c ya in week 10! #54!WE ARE ALL PATRIOTS AND TODAY THE PATRIOTS ARE WORLD CHAMPIONS

Thanks for the memories and the spirit and courage that you have shown. The mere fact that he was able to play again after suffering a stroke is already a testament to his character. Enjoy retirement and kids. We'll miss you Tedy. End of an era in Patriots history.

"One day at a time, one game at a time; one victory at a time. For Boston, for New England, for Glory, for History and for the Dream that will always live"!
